Frequently asked questions

Is Extract Form Data free to use?

Yes. Extract Form Data is completely free with no account, no trial and no usage cap. Every feature on this page is available on the first visit.

Does Extract Form Data upload your file to a server?

No. Extract Form Data processes your file inside your browser, so it never reaches a DocTools server. That also means the tool keeps working if your connection drops mid-task.

Is there a file size limit?

The practical ceiling is your device's available memory rather than a server quota. Files up to roughly 100 MB work comfortably on a typical laptop in Extract Form Data.

Do I need to install anything to use Extract Form Data?

No installation is needed. Extract Form Data runs in Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Safari, on desktop and on mobile, with no extension or plugin.

Can I use Extract Form Data on a phone or tablet?

Yes. The Extract Form Data interface adapts to small screens and supports touch input, though very large jobs are faster on a desktop browser.

What happens to your file when I close the tab?

It is discarded. Extract Form Data keeps everything in temporary browser memory, so closing the tab removes every trace of the session.
